Tarzan's Three Challenges

Sorry for the title-movie I'm watching.

Tomorrow I'm going fishing with my old buddies. Blue cat and flat heads are running. These guys can put 300lbs in the boat in a few hours. Last time I caught a 17lb blue. Now the Challenge part. We always drink a lot of beer. I haven't been fishing since getting sober Dec 9. Spoke with my sponsor said it would be ok IF I don't want to relive old times or an excuse to drink. I just want to enjoy some great fishing. Both guys are very cool with me not drinking and I do have an exit plan and some phone numbers to call if it gets hairy.

Sober 22 days. I really don't think I want to drink and still fear a sip of beer like death. I gotta be around it eventually. Still a challenge-it should however be easier than a sword fight which takes place on a wide-mesh net stretched over cauldrons of boiling oil.
